1 Bearing Capacity (Daya Dukung Tanah) Dr. Ir.H. Erizal, MAgr

2 Definisi Daya dukung yang diizinkan (allowable bearing cap.) tekanan maksimum yang dapat diaplikasikan ke tanah dimana 2 kondisi diatas dipenuhi. Daya dukung batas (ultimate bearing cap.) tekanan minimum yang menyebabkan keruntuhan geser (shear failure) pada tanah pendukung secara cepat ke bawah.

3 Footing Performance Vertical Load Vertical movement Elastic maximum tolerable settlement safe load Plastic Serviceability Ultimate Limit State Maximum allowable load = min [safe load, max service load ] maximum service load Plunging Failure ultimate capacity

4 Limit States Serviceability Ultimate

5 Serviceability Limit State Maximum load at which structure still performs satisfactorily : Settlement Horizontal movement Rotation Sliding Applied Load Force (kn)

6 Bearing Pressure Definitions Allowable Bearing Pressure q a = < qf s (settlement) / A F Plan Area, A Ultimate Bearing Capacity q ult = F fail / A

7 Foundation Failure Rotational Failure Force Soil Heave Resistance

8 Generalized Shear Failure q Soil Failure Lines Settlement rigid radial shear passive log spiral

9 Local Shear Failure q minor surface heave only Settlement Medium dense or firm soils

10 Punching Shear Failure q No surface heave Settlement Loose or Soft Soils

11 Methods for calculating bearing capacity Full scale load tests Load tests on model footings Limit equilibrium analysis Detailed stress analysis such as the FEM method

12 Limit equilibrium analysis solutions for weightless soils: Solutions with φ = 0 : Prandtl smooth punch : q ult = 5.14c Prandtl rough punch : q ult = 5.7c Solutions with φ 0 : Rough punch passive active log spiral

13 Bearing Capacity for real soils Exact, theoretical analytical solutions have only been computed for special cases - e.g. soils with no weight, no frictional strength, φ or no cohesion, c. Approximate solutions have been derived by combining solutions for these special cases. The first solution was by Terzaghi (1943) - father of soil mechanics. Others later modified this solution. The failure mechanism corresponds to general failure. Corrections are applied to check for the possibility of local or punching shear failure.

14 Jenis pondasi berdasarkan kedalamannya 1. Pondasi dangkal (shallow foundation) bila kedalaman pondasi, Df, lebih kecil dibanding lebar pondasi, B 2. Pondasi dalam (deep foundation) bila kedalaman pondasi, Df, lebih besar/dalam dibanding lebar pondasi, B

25 Wall on Strip Footing Depth Factors For buried footings : F cd, F qd, F γd 1 q = γ.d f increased strength failure generally line length increases with depth

26 V = kn H = 423 kn Inclination Factors For inclined loads : F ci, F qi, F γi 1 Inclined load = 1000 kn Load inclination, θ = 25 o Failure surface shallower and shorter

27 Terzaghi or General General is more accurate Applies to a broader range of loading and geometry conditions General is more complicated

28 Contoh 1 Sebuah pondasi bujur sangkar dengan sisi 2.25 m diletakkan pada kedalaman 1.5 m pada pasir< di mana parameter kuat gesernya c =0 dan ø= 38 o. Tentukan daya dukung ultimit (a) bila muka air tanah berada di bawah elevasi pondasi, (b) jika muka air tanah berada pada permukaan tanah. Berat isi pasir di atas muka air tanah adalah 18 kn/m 3, berat isi jenuhnya 20 kn/m 3. Pondasi bujur sangkar q f = 0.4γBN γ + γdn q ø= 38 o N γ = 67, N q = 49 q f = (0.4 x 18 x 2.25 x 67) + (18 x 1.5 x 49) = = 2408 kn/m 2 Daya dukung di bawah muka air: q f = 0.4γ BN γ + γ DN q γ = γ sat γ w = = 10.2 kn/m 3 q f = (0.4 x 10.2 x 2.25 x 67) + (10.2 x 1.5 x 49) = = 1365 kn/m 2

29 Contoh 2 Sebuah pondasi jalur didesain memikul beban 800 kn/m pada kedalaman 0.7 m pada pasir berkerikil. Parameter kekuatan geser yang tersedia adalah c =0 danø =40 o. Tentukan lebar pondasi bila faktor keamanan = 3 dan diasumsikan mungkin muka air tanah mencapai pondasi. Berat isi pasir adalah 17 kn/m 3, berat isi jenuhnya 20 kn/m 3. ø =40 o N γ =95 dan N q =64 q f = ½γ BN γ + γbn q = (½ x 10.2 x B x 95) + (17 x 0.7 x 64) = 485B q nf =q f γd ; q n = q - γd ; F = q nf / q n = 485B (17 x 0.7) = (800/B) (17 x 0.7) = 485B = (800/B) 12 1 (485B + 750) = B B = 1.55 m

33 Solution: Assuming A General Shear Condition, Enter the Bearing Capacity Chart for φ= 20 and Read N c = 14, N q = 6, Nγ = 3. Also note that formula for bearing capacity must account for the square footing and the water table within the failure zone. q ult B = ( )CNc + [ γ subd + ( γt γsub )d]nq + 0.4γ subbnγ L = ( 1.3)(500)14 + [63(5) + (125 63)5] (63)(6)(3) = q ult = 13,300psf q all = q ult 3 = 13, , 430 psf
